About the team
Manufacturing Systems Engineering (MSE) team is responsible for building standardized, automated, and scalable manufacturing systems. Our mission is to transform engineering inputs into production-ready solutions in four critical areas: automated testing for chambers, calibration and provisioning of manufacturing systems, shop floor management tools, and optimized test station design and infrastructure. We act as the critical interface between engineering and production teams, ensuring seamless integration of software and hardware components in developing production-ready systems. We focus on delivering solutions that automate production testing processes, reduce cycle times, and optimize setup/teardown procedures, effectively addressing critical bottlenecks while ensuring consistent implementation across all production sites.
